How to filter for epic and all linked issues within it?

Jade Zammit_h47d2b

I am looking to create a specific Kanban board which only has issues linked to a specific Epic within it. I've tried various JQL queries but not getting far.. Essentially I'd want all linked tasks, stories and bugs within the board but epic specific?

Also - can multiple boards be created within one project?

Hello Jade,

Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

You can start by filtering by Epic Link. The Epic Link custom field is a relational link to determine an issue's parent epic.

So for example you could use a JQL like the one below:


"Epic Link" = "Epic Name"

By doing this you will retrieve all issues that have that Epic linked.

Also, boards are not connected to projects, so you can create how many you want and set different filters for each one. A board displays issues from one or more projects, giving you a flexible way of viewing, managing, and reporting on work in progress.

I recommend checking this documentation about boards if you would like to know more.

Please give it a try and let me know how it goes.

Cheers,

Carlos

Thanks Carlos - really appreciate the help!

I have tried as above to call all linked issues but I am only seeing linked stories - no linked bugs. I have changed all status fields within these issues to in progress/open for visibility but the bugs or test tasks are not pulling through with this - any ideas?

Hello Jade,

It should be showing the bugs, I've just double checked on my side and confirmed that it should be showing all tickets that have the Epic linked to it.

Could you please provide here an image of the Bug ticket so I can see the Epic Link and also an image of the Epic?

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Regards,

Carlos

Is there a way to show the parent child relationship when we use jira filters. Like I should be able to show all the stories in the epic as well its related tickets (bugs and other linked issues)
